A Visit from Anne our Postperson

The pupils have been learning about the Post Office in Aistear. They learned about the journey a letter takes when it is posted. They wrote letters, bought stamps for them and posted them. They worked in the post office selling stamps, TV licences and dog licences. Then the post had to be sorted and delivered. Anne, our local post person took time out from her busy schedule to talk to the children about her work with an Post. They had lots of questions for her. Anne starts work very early in the morning in Belturbet, where she sorts the post that comes from Athlone. There are 10 other people working in Belturbet and they all have their own area to deliver to. She has 365 houses on her round. Anne has a special uniform and she must always wear her boots and high visibility jacket for safety. Thank you Anne for visiting our school.
